Route and Plan:
Boston: We will gather on the 2nd floor under the Quincy Market Rotunda in the Faneuil Hall Marketplace. We’ll march on a predetermined route (approx 1½ mi.), stopping periodically to 'disinfect' a courthouse or let our message be heard at key locations. The March will conclude in front of the Massachusetts State House. Many of us will be driving from Boston to Concord, NH. Let us know if you’d like to do both events…we’ll help to coordinate rides.
Concord: We will gather in front of the NH State House, demonstrating in solidarity for equal parenting rights. An assortment of speakers will address the gathering. Everyone is welcomed to speak if they are so moved. There will also be cameramen giving many attendees the opportunity, should they desire, to share their views on tape for a video that we are producing.
WHAT TO WEAR:
• Judge Outfit (graduation robes are good, no SCARY masks this time, clown makeup/mask or other statement OK)• Decontamination Suit ($8 tyvek overall from Home Depot, we’ll "decorate it with F4J purple handprints, bring a broom, mop/squeegee, or sprayer, too)
• Superhero Costume – your choice, should be kid-friendly
